Why it was refused
- The proposed extension, by virtue of its siting and excessive length, would have an unacceptable overbearing impact on the occupiers of 24 St Peters Road, contrary to Policy PS2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan (2019) and the guidance contained within the Council's Placemaking Guidance for Householder Development SPG (2021).
From the council's decision notice.
